"Any time there's a fire in the community and with family, we put the jug up for a week," Clay said. "This time maybe longer."
Next door, at the attached Fruithurst Family Restaurant, Beth Williams was seated with friends, all of them well aware of the tragedy.
Williams knows the family through her children, who attended school with Amos' children — including the two that died in the fire, 6-year-old Brendan Clayton and 3-year-old Tristan Amos.
Brendan was "cute as a button," Williams said. "He did remind me of Opie Taylor – was that the name on Andy Griffith – with his freckles."
Williams said she was helping to organize a fundraiser through the Fruithurst Elementary Parent Teacher Organization for the surviving Amos family: Tommy, 37, and Bridget, 25, and their children Destiny, 16, and Justin, about 13. Rita Hall, Bridget's mother, also lived with the family, Williams said.
All three adults were taken to Higgins General Hospital in Bremen, Ga. Brendan and Tristan died as a result of the fire. The other two children had left for school before the fire, Williams said. Brendan wasn't feeling well that morning and hadn't gone to school, she added.
Tommy is known as "Tattoo Tommy" around Fruithurst, Williams said. He's a tattoo artist by trade. Williams described Bridget as cute and bubbly.
"This is a small community," Williams said. "They say if you don't know your business, someone else will."
One result of that intimacy is that the community comes together to support its families suffering through a fire or some other emergency, Williams said.
Robbie Hutchinson, seated next to Williams agreed.
"We may not have been close to 'em, but in a thing like this, they're family," she said.
Messages of shock and condolence started appearing on the parents' Facebook page hours after the fire. People were gathered at "the watering hole," as Williams calls the restaurant, organizing a community prayer vigil at the Fruithurst Baptist Church and a multi-church fundraiser tentatively set for Feb. 1. Donations can be taken to the store or at Fruithurst Elementary School, Williams said.
The family, they said, has asked not to be contacted, even by friends for the time being.
The Red Cross is contacting the family through Gena Teague, a family friend, said Chris Osborne, the agency's regional communications officer.
Teague said she has known Tommy Amos since he moved to Fruithurst at least a decade ago. He and her son are friends, she said.
"He's one of my kids," Teague said. "You couldn't ask for a better person. He would give you the shirt off his back."
She met Bridget through Tommy about five years ago when the couple first started dating, Teague said.
The family was staying at a friend's home Friday and was trying to "wrap their minds around" what happened, Teague said. Tommy Amos, who has Type 1 diabetes, was burned and cut on his hands and arms. Bridget Amos and Hall were treated for smoke inhalation. Bridget Amos was also treated for minor cuts, Teauge said. They all were released from Higgins General Hospital by Thursday afternoon, Teague said. But they're grieving, she said. The whole town is.
"We've lost children in this community before, but nothing ever like this," said Dale Wilkie, also at the Fruithurst restaurant.
Williams said that's why the community has come together the way it has.
"It takes a community to heal," she said. "The community has to heal."
A prayer vigil was held Sunday at Fruithurst Baptist.

BMW X3 review
The BMW X3 is a hugely capable 4x4 - whether on-road or off it - with powerful, efficient engines and lots of space
Sponsored Links
The original BMW X3 didn't make much of an impression on the small SUV market, because it suffered from below-average build quality, an awkward design and questionable off-road ability. However, this latest model – launched in 2011 – is one of the best cars in class, rivalling the likes of the Range Rover Evoque, Audi Q5 and Land Rover Freelander. The X3 features smart exterior styling that takes cues from the bigger BMW X5, while there's a choice of refined four-cylinder and six-cylinder diesel engines with a range of power outputs. Drivers wanting strong petrol performance will be disappointed, as these diesels are the only options in the X3. But the 3.0-litre six-cylinder models should be fast enough for most. Every BMW X3 gets stop-start technology as part of the EfficientDynamics package of efficiency tweaks, but buyers prioritising low running costs should choose one of the entry-level four-cylinder versions. These are available with rear-wheel drive, and the weight saving over the four-wheel-drive cars brings significant benefits in terms of fuel consumption and CO2 emissions, and in turn lower road tax bills. Yet no matter which X3 you go for, you'll be getting a car that's great to drive on or off road, as well as very spacious, with a comfortable ride. And the X3 manages to be desirable without the overt glitz of the similarly priced Range Rover Evoque.
Our choice: X3 xDrive 20d SE
On the outside, the BMW X3 provides the chunky, rugged and utilitarian look buyers expect from a small premium SUV. It has similar dimensions to the likes of the Range Rover Evoque and Audi Q5, but hides them well, and features like roof rails, wide wheelarches and black plastic body cladding all hint at its off-road potential. Yet traditional BMW styling cues remain, like the trademark kidney grille that dominates the front end. Even entry-level SE versions of the X3 come with 17-inch alloys as standard, while pumped-up M Sport models get bigger wheels, as well as lower and wider bumpers, a silver grille finish and stiffened suspension. Every X3 features a simple but attractive interior, with generous equipment as standard. Goodies like leather seats, cruise control and automatic headlights are all included in the price, while a smart 6.5-inch central colour screen provides easy access to various settings via the trademark BMW iDrive infotainment system.
The X3 handles brilliantly, and corners with the kind of agility and poise that would embarrass most saloons, let alone tall off-roaders. High-spec models get BMW's xDrive four-wheel-drive system as standard, for maximum grip and traction on and off-road, while more basic versions come with rear-wheel drive, and still impress with their driving fun. Buyers have a choice of two diesel engines with different power outputs. The X3 sDrive 18d has a 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine that sends 143bhp to the rear wheels – and it's perfect for buyers who want the high seating position of a 4x4, but demand low running costs and don't mind limited off-road ability. This diesel is also available in a four-wheel-drive X3, the xDrive 20d, where it delivers a respectable 184bhp and 380Nm of torque. Both 2.0-litre models are offered with manual or automatic gearboxes, and while they can be a bit gruff when pushed, they provide decent pace. For the ultimate in performance and refinement, go for one of the 3.0-litre six-cylinder models. There's a choice of 258bhp and 313bhp versions, both with the superb eight-speed automatic box, and the latter covers 0-62mph in just 5.8 seconds.
The latest BMW X3 is even more solidly built than the original, with fit and finish on par with premium rival Audi. There's also a host of electronic safety kit, including hill start assist, hill descent control for navigating steeper gradients, traction control and dynamic brake assist. Active headrests, crash sensors and a full complement of airbags also played their part in helping the X3 achieve the maximum five-star rating in Euro NCAP in crash tests. All the major mechanicals have been tried and tested in other models in the BMW range, and their reliability has been proven in the Auto Express Driver Power satisfaction survey. Owners ranked the latest X3 an impressive 13th in the Driver Power 2013 Top 100, which suggests potential buyers aren't likely to encounter many problems.
The X3 is longer and taller and than the Range Rover Evoque, with a longer wheelbase, and its interior is much more spacious as a result. There's enough head and legroom in the rear to sit three adults in relative comfort, although a tall transmission tunnel means you wouldn't want to stay in the middle seat for long. With the rear seats in place, boot size stands at 550 litres, although when they're folded down, the maximum 1,600-litre capacity isn't quite as large as in rivals like the Land Rover Freelander. Still, a handy optional 40:20:40 split seat arrangement means you can carry awkward items like bikes with relative ease. The X3 is also a superb choice for caravan owners, with higher-powered four-wheel-drive models offering a towing capacity of up to 2,400kg.
Running Costs
Clever fuel-saving technology on the BMW X3 includes stop-start and brake regeneration, so even the high-powered six-cylinder models are surprisingly efficient. The top-spec 313bhp 3.0-litre xDrive promises fuel consumption of only 46.3mpg and emits just 162g/km of CO2, so annual road tax bills won't be too high. Owners will pay the price elsewhere, though – this model sits in insurance group 40. That compares to group 23 for a rear-wheel-drive X3, and these entry-level models also deliver 55.4mpg and 135g/km if you specify a manual gearbox. Service intervals are variable across the range, so the car will tell you when it needs some attention from a dealer. And while replacement parts come at the high price you expect from a premium manufacturer, BMW offers some competitive pre-paid servicing packages to take the sting out of ownership costs.

Yet another German Junk Box that should be taxed at 250% on entry into the country and then pay £1000.00 per year road tax ..
Do you have a problem with BMW or is it Germans or perhaps it is life in general. If you do not know technology please refrain from spoiling a genuinely well written artcicle. Flippant!
Totally agree, some people never come up with a half decent argument, just stupid over the top exaggerated comments.
Just another UKIP looney racist
Excellent off road??? Are you kidding? Poser mobile for people with zero taste.
Nice car to drive and the gearbox is very smooth but do not believe the mpg figures.
I get 36mpg average on mixed driving and I do not drive hard.
Prefer my old Honda crv for consumption and build quality but would keep the BMW gearbox
dont you mean a looney labour loser.
"... whether on-road or off it"
Off road??! How many minutes a year is that likely to happen?
X3 needs some serious plastic surgery to even come close to s 3stars for styling...4 star???? should of gone to spec-saver

Version 7.x-2.0-rc1
The Date Browser has been removed. Please use the Date Pager instead. If you have existing views using the Date
Browser the navigation will just disappear from them. If you add a Date Pager to the view you should get it back.
Then delete the Date Browser attachment from the view, since it doesn't do anything any more.
The UNTIL date was not getting included in repeating results and that is now fixed. This is an API change of sorts
for anyone who worked around the issue by setting it ahead.
The All Day checkbox and All Day themes were moved into a separate module, using new hooks added to the date
processing. This module should serve as an example of how other modules can inject functionality into date fields.
A new module has been added for integrating the Date Repeat API into date fields. Some of this code has been
moved into the new module, more of it will be moved later as I figure out how to unwind it from the base
processing. An update hook has been added to enable this module by default for existing sites. If you don't
use Repeating dates you can disable it.
There is a new file, api.date.php, that describes the new hooks that make it easier for other modules to intervene in Date processing.
The date repeat widgets have been removed to keep users from trying to change repeating dates into non-repeating dates.
There are now just three widgets, Date Select, Date Text, and Date Popup. Whether or not a date is a repeating date
is now controlled by a field setting.
New Features/UX Changes/API Changes
- Issue #1304056 by DamienMcKenna, Add option to date_difference to indicate direction of difference.
- Issue #1238660, Add custom format option for the date format used in summary arguments.

- Issue #1261478 by stevector and KarenS, Reconfigure the back/next buttons into item lists so Views ajax pager works right.
- Issue #1262960, Add a new module to work with the Context module to set a condition based on the value of a date field.
- Issue #1216878, Re-introduce 'repeat' as a field setting rather than a widget type so people can't try to switch back and forth between repeating and non-repeating dates. Eliminate repeat widgets.
Version 7.x-2.0-alpha4
Notes to themers:
Previous versions put dates with both From and To dates into a fieldset and other dates were not.
The new code adds additional floating elements that are hard to contain, so now all dates are
enclosed in fieldsets in the node form. There are also new elements on the form, an optional
checkbox for hiding/showing the To date and an optional checkbox for hiding/showing time.
Previously dates on the node form had 'From date' and 'To date' labels above them, this
has been changed to remove those labels, using the Google calendar date entry screen
as a model. This simplifies the node form and dates take up less space. A light grey border
has been added around each collection of dates (the From date and the To date). The display
of labels above the date parts (year, month, day, date, time, etc) is controlled in the
field settings. Previous versions did not always honor those settings, this one does.

This branch will totally re-work and simplify the Views filters. These changes may/will break some views and will require that you check views that use the date filter or argument to be sure they are still configured correctly.
There is a new date_filter_handler_simple for an individual date field that simplifies the Views handling by using most of the core Views field handling but adds in the possibility to set a default date using options like 'now', along with a choice of a month/day/year drop-down selector or popup calendar selector.
Views made lots of changes to field handling just before the new release, which broke lots of things here. Adding some work-arounds to get things working again and waiting until the dust settles on how the new core fields will be handled in Views before doing much more with the Views integration. These changes should get things working with latest Views release.

More power to you
No one likes to run out of batteries. It's a hassle. Scouring the house for new ones. Finding two that still have juice. Even making an extra trip to the store. At Logitech, we're doing everything we can to make the hassle of replacing batteries hassle-free.
Batteries? What batteries?
Wireless keyboards let you avoid the inconvenience of cords. But unlike a corded keyboard (which is powered via USB and your computer), wireless keyboards use batteries, and batteries do run out of power.
Learn more about the Logitech® Wireless Keyboard K350, featuring a three-year battery life.
Charge on
If rechargeable is more your style, we've got those too. You just put your keyboard in its charging base. It's that easy. (Plus it's good for the planet.)
Comfort Wave Design: The design of comfort
Typing is a big part of daily life. You do it automatically without really thinking about it. But, if you're like most people, you're feeling it. That's what prompted us to rethink keyboard design and create a line of comfortable keyboards that don't make you relearn how to type, unlike split keyboards.
An idea right at our fingertips
We set out to create a keyboard that didn't force you to conform to it—but rather one that conformed to you. The idea? A wave-shaped key frame with varying key heights to mirror the varying lengths of your fingers.
Curve + Wave + Palm Rest
Not ones to rest on our laurels, we looked at all of our options. We tried linear designs. Curved designs. Palm rests and no palm rests. And all the possible combinations. When we put them to the test, the clear favorite was the keyboard with curve + wave + palm rest. The Wave keyboard was born.
Details, details
Unlike other curved keyboards, we used consistently sized keys. The subtle 5-degree curve was designed to let your hands open up and take a natural position instead of forcing your wrists to bend. And because each key is the same size and same distance from one another, you wouldn't need to relearn how to type.
Comfort at last
To bring all this comfort to the achy masses, we had to completely redesign nearly every element of the assembly process and our packaging. But the results were worth it. Independent studies show that the Wave keyboards significantly reduce the four major points of discomfort—without causing a noticeable change in typing speed or accuracy.* It's comfort made easy.

Welcome to the Guild. There are many GIMP users in the Guild (me for one) We would all be glad to help with any questions you might have
I'm Tim and I have just got into GIMP and am using it to make some maps for my D&D and Savage Worlds groups. I find GIMP wickedly complex, but fabulously complete for freeware. I draw reasonably well, though I got a bit out of practice in the last few years and am getting used to working with a tablet (just a Volito atm). I live in the Netherlands but I am mostly British.

UltraPixel Sensor: Let There be More Light
For years, a misconception among most consumers is that the higher the megapixel count, the better quality of images. Actually, the number of megapixels is only one of many factors that determine picture quality, with sensors and image processors each playing a critical role.
However, year after year manufacturers try to outdo each other with higher megapixels. How? By reducing the size of the pixels to cram more in, which often decreases image quality. That's because the smaller the pixel, the less light each one collects. This results in more visible noise and other defects in both still images and video.
The more light a digital camera can capture, the more information it can record, resulting in better pictures in more varied conditions and lighting environments.
HTC's approach is to offer larger pixels in the new sensor that can capture 300% more light than many of the 13 megapixel cameras on the market. Because larger pixels record more light and data, our photos display more shades and greater color accuracy.

Perhaps you plan meetings full time, or maybe you're a manager who's asked once a year to organize your small company's sales meeting. Either way, this guide is for you. It's a road map that will send you, and your small meetings (those with fewer than 75 participants), in the right direction.
Too often, business meetings-a management meeting, a training session, a decision-making meeting-are taken for granted. No agenda is put into place, no meaningful objectives set, and therefore-when all is said and done-nothing is learned or remembered, and certainly nothing meaningful is taken away that can be put into practice.
But that doesn't have to be the case. Small meetings demand interaction, one of the tenets of teaching adults successfully. This Guide includes ways to make your meetings more interactive and to keep your attendees on track; plus it offers tips on finding hotel meeting space in today's tight seller's market and other practical techniques like planning the best room set-up for your meeting.

To receive more information about up-to-date research on micronutrients, sign up for the free, semi-annual LPI Research Newsletter here.
Phosphorus is an essential mineral that is required by every cell in the body for normal function (1). The majority of the phosphorus in the body is found as phosphate (PO4). Approximately 85% of the body's phosphorus is found in bone (2).
Phosphorus is a major structural component of bone in the form of a calcium phosphate salt called hydroxyapatite. Phospholipids (e.g., phosphatidylcholine) are major structural components of cell membranes. All energy production and storage are dependent on phosphorylated compounds, such as adenosine triphosphate (ATP) and creatine phosphate. Nucleic acids (DNA and RNA), which are responsible for the storage and transmission of genetic information, are long chains of phosphate-containing molecules. A number of enzymes, hormones, and cell-signaling molecules depend on phosphorylation for their activation. Phosphorus also helps to maintain normal acid-base balance (pH) by acting as one of the body's most important buffers. Additionally, the phosphorus-containing molecule 2,3-diphosphoglycerate (2,3-DPG) binds to hemoglobin in red blood cells and affects oxygen delivery to the tissues of the body (1).
Nutrient interactions:
A study of 11 adult men found that a diet high in fructose (20% of total calories) resulted in increased urinary loss of phosphorus and a negative phosphorus balance (i.e., daily loss of phosphorus was higher than daily intake). This effect was more pronounced when the diet was also low in magnesium (3). A potential mechanism for this effect is the lack of feedback inhibition of the conversion of fructose to fructose-1-phosphate in the liver. In other words, fructose-1-phosphate accumulates in the cell but this compound does not inhibit the enzyme that phosphorylates fructose, which consumes large amounts of phosphate. This phenomenon is known as phosphate trapping (1). This study's finding is relevant because fructose consumption in the U.S. has been increasing rapidly since the introduction of high fructose corn syrup in 1970, while magnesium intake has decreased over the past century (3).
Calcium and vitamin D
Dietary phosphorus is readily absorbed in the small intestine, and any excess phosphorus absorbed is excreted by the kidneys. The regulation of blood calcium and phosphorus levels is interrelated through the actions of parathyroid hormone (PTH) and vitamin D (diagram). A slight drop in blood calcium levels (e.g., in the case of inadequate calcium intake) is sensed by the parathyroid glands, resulting in their increased secretion of PTH. PTH stimulates conversion of vitamin D to its active form (calcitriol) in the kidneys. Increased calcitriol levels in turn result in increased intestinal absorption of both calcium and phosphorus. Both PTH and vitamin D stimulate bone resorption, resulting in the release of bone mineral (calcium and phosphate) into the blood. Although PTH stimulation results in decreased urinary excretion of calcium, it results in increased urinary excretion of phosphorus. The increased urinary excretion of phosphorus is advantageous in bringing blood calcium levels up to normal because high blood levels of phosphate suppress the conversion of vitamin D to its active form in the kidneys (4).
Is high phosphorus intake detrimental to bone health?
Some investigators are concerned about the increasing amounts of phosphates in the diet which can be attributed to phosphoric acid in soft drinks and phosphate additives in a number of commercially prepared foods (5, 6). Because phosphorus is not as tightly regulated by the body as calcium, serum phosphate levels can rise slightly with a high phosphorus diet, especially after meals. High phosphate levels in the blood reduce the formation of the active form of vitamin D (calcitriol) in the kidneys, reduce blood calcium, and lead to increased PTH release by the parathyroid glands. However, high serum phosphorus levels also lead to decreased urinary calcium excretion (2). If sustained, elevated PTH levels could have an adverse effect on bone mineral content, but this effect has only been observed in humans on diets that were high in phosphorus and low in calcium. Moreover, similarly elevated PTH levels have been reported in diets that were low in calcium without being high in phosphorus (7). Recently, a controlled trial in young women found no adverse effects of a phosphorus-rich diet (3,000 mg/day) on bone-related hormones and biochemical markers of bone resorption when dietary calcium intakes were maintained at almost 2,000 mg/day (8). At present, there is no convincing evidence that the dietary phosphorus levels experienced in the U.S. adversely affect bone mineral density. However, the substitution of phosphate-containing soft drinks and snack foods for milk and other calcium rich foods does represent a serious risk to bone health (see Calcium).
Inadequate phosphorus intake results in abnormally low serum phosphate levels (hypophosphatemia). The effects of hypophosphatemia may include loss of appetite, anemia, muscle weakness, bone pain, rickets (in children), osteomalacia (in adults), increased susceptibility to infection, numbness and tingling of the extremities, and difficulty walking. Severe hypophosphatemia may result in death. Because phosphorus is so widespread in food, dietary phosphorus deficiency is usually seen only in cases of near-total starvation. Other individuals at risk of hypophosphatemia include alcoholics, diabetics recovering from an episode of diabetic ketoacidosis, and starving or anorexic patients on refeeding regimens that are high in calories but too low in phosphorus (1, 2).
The Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA)
The recommended dietary allowance (RDA) for phosphorus was based on the maintenance of normal serum phosphate levels in adults, which was believed to represent adequate phosphorus intake to meet cellular and bone formation needs (2).
|Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) for Phosphorus
|Life Stage
|0-6 months
|7-12 months
|1-3 years
|4-8 years
|9-13 years
|14-18 years
|19 years and older
|18 years and younger

Food sources
Phosphorus is found in most foods because it is a critical component of all living organisms. Dairy products, meat, and fish are particularly rich sources of phosphorus. Phosphorus is also a component of many polyphosphate food additives and is present in most soft drinks as phosphoric acid. Dietary phosphorus derived from food additives is not calculated in most food databases, so the total amount of phosphorus consumed by the average person in the U.S. is not entirely clear. A large survey of nutrient consumption in the U.S. found that the average phosphorus intake was 1,495 mg/day in men and 1,024 mg/day in women. The Food and Nutrition Board estimates phosphorus consumption in the U.S. has increased 10% to 15% over the past 20 years (2).
The phosphorus in all plant seeds (beans, peas, cereals, and nuts) is present in a storage form of phosphate called phytic acid or phytate. Only about 50% of the phosphorus from phytate is available to humans because we lack enzymes (phytases) that liberate phosphorus from phytate (9). Yeasts possess phytases, so whole grains incorporated into leavened breads have more bioavailable phosphorus than whole grains incorporated into breakfast cereals or flat breads (2). The table below lists a number of phosphorus rich foods along with their phosphorus content in milligrams (mg). For more information on the nutrient content of foods, search the USDA food composition database.

#Phosphorus from nuts, seeds, and grains is about 50% less bioavailable than phosphorus from other sources (9).
Sodium phosphate and potassium phosphate salts are used for the treatment of hypophosphatemia, and their use requires medical supervision. Calcium phosphate salts are sometimes used as calcium supplements (10).
The most serious adverse effect of abnormally elevated blood levels of phosphate (hyperphosphatemia) is the calcification of non-skeletal tissues, most commonly the kidneys. Such calcium phosphate deposition can lead to organ damage, especially kidney damage. Because the kidneys are very efficient at eliminating excess phosphate from the circulation, hyperphosphatemia from dietary causes is usually only a problem in people with kidney failure (end-stage renal disease) or hypoparathyroidism. When kidney function is only 20% of normal, even typical levels of dietary phosphorus may lead to hyperphosphatemia. Pronounced hyperphosphatemia has also occurred due to increased intestinal absorption of phosphate salts taken by mouth as well as due to colonic absorption of the phosphate salts in enemas (1). To avoid the adverse effects of hyperphosphatemia, the Food and Nutrition Board set a tolerable upper intake level (UL) for oral phosphorus intake in generally healthy individuals (2). The lower UL for individuals over 70 years of age reflects the increased likelihood of impaired kidney function in elderly individuals. The UL does not apply to individuals with significantly impaired kidney function or other health conditions known to increase the risk of hyperphosphatemia.
|Tolerable Upper Intake Level (UL) for Phosphorus
|Age Group
|UL (mg/day)
|Infants 0-12 months
|Not possible to establish*
|Children 1-3 years
|3,000 (3.0 g)
|Children 4-8 years

|Adults 19-70 years
|4,000 (4.0 g)
|Adults 70 years and older
|3,000 (3.0 g)
|3,500 (3.5 g)
|4,000 (4.0 g)
*Source of intake should be from food and formula only.
Drug Interactions
Aluminum-containing antacids reduce the absorption of dietary phosphorus by forming aluminum phosphate, which is unabsorbable. When consumed in high doses, aluminum-containing antacids can produce abnormally low blood phosphate levels (hypophosphatemia) as well as aggravate phosphate deficiency due to other causes (11). As little as one ounce of aluminum hydroxide gel three times a day for several weeks can diminish serum phosphate levels and lead to increased urinary calcium loss (12). Excessively high doses of calcitriol, the active form of vitamin D, or its analogs may result in hyperphosphatemia (2).
Potassium supplements or potassium-sparing diuretics taken together with a phosphate may result in high blood levels of potassium (hyperkalemia). Hyperkalemia can be a serious problem, resulting in life threatening heart rhythm abnormalities (arrhythmias). People taking such a combination must inform their health care provider and have their serum potassium levels checked regularly (11).
Linus Pauling Institute Recommendation
The Linus Pauling Institute supports the RDA for phosphorus (700 mg/day for adults). Although few multivitamin/mineral supplements contain more than 15% of the current RDA for phosphorus, a varied diet should easily provide adequate phosphorus for most people.
Older adults (> 50 years)
At present, there is no evidence that the phosphorus requirements of older adults differ from that of younger adults (700 mg/day). Although few multivitamin/mineral supplements contain more than 15% of the current RDA for phosphorus, a varied diet should easily provide adequate phosphorus for most older people.

To celebrate the release of Randy Houser's new album How Country Feels, available now, we're featuring five of the tracks all this week. Today, "Runnin' Outta Moonlight" is on deck.
The carefree "Runnin' Outta Moonlight" is written by hit songwriters Dallas Davidson, Kelly Lovelace and Ashley Gorley. Despite being the first song fans hear when they listen to How Country Feels, "Runnin' Outta Moonlight" was one of the last recorded for the album. Randy says, "My buddy Dallas sent me this the day before our last day in the studio. It was such a relief to find such a fun, catchy song at the last minute."

pie wagon – the food was greasy, way too little on the plate for the price, rude people. we won't be back.
That is an interesting comment since they use no grease or pork in their food.
Now this is Southern Cookin' – I came here for the first time a couple of weeks ago and I've been back practically everyday since. When it comes to southern cookin' these folks sure got it right. Every time I eat there all kinds of nostalgic memories start poppin' up and at times I'm just sure that if I poked my head in the kitchen I'd see my little granny, with her silver white hair pulled back into a neat braid, hovering over the iron skillet to make sure the catfish was cooked just right.
This is one of the few places left now a days that when you walk in you can tell that they actually care that you're there and are happy to see you. You might even get to hear a good knee slapper of a story from the owner.
Visit Copper Kettle instead... – This meat & 3 was not worth the quality of food for the price. I paid $9 for a meat & 2 with iced tea.
The mashed potatoes were from a box. Good potatoes can be found anytime now and should not be substituted by flakes from a box at this kind of restaurant. I understand there are labor costs that go into peeling, boiling/steaming, and mashing those potatoes. I had green beans & sampled my companion's vegetables. I believe that even if a restaurant must serve food from a can due to cost or seasonally availability, there are ways to season & cook those foods without them becoming mushy & tastless.
What happened to making a few good things really well?
I highly recommend that you try The Copper Kettle if you're looking for a good meat & 3 in Nashville. I would also like to add: for that price, Whole Food's food bar is well worth a trip.
Great southern cooking – Very good food. If you like southern cooking you will love the Pie Wagon. The fried chicken is wonderful and the blackberry cobbler tastes like my grandmother?s. A great place for lunch, it?s cafeteria style so you can get your food, sit down, and take as much or as little time as you like. The food and the prices are very reasonable.
I go to the Pie Wagon at least once a week – I love the Pie Wagon! It is nice and convinient to where I work downtown. The food is awesome, I love the hot chicken and the catfish on Fridays! I am a southerner and I think this is some of the best home cooked food I've ever eaten.
Did I order the kids meal?? – The place looks great and service was fast. The food was not so good. The portions were small and not filling. I have been to many other meat and 3's this one just can't satisfy the hunger. I did enjoy the turnip greens. They were the best part.
GRRRATE – I had my first Pie Wagon experience one week ago. The food was hot, the selection was great, and the staff was both friendly and helpful. I was informed that they had recently moved to their current location. I'm not sure what there last facility was like but there current one is very clean and cozy. The Pie Wagon is definitely my favorite meat & three in Nashville.
Not to my liking......... – not one of my favorite places to eat in Nashville and there are many more meat and 3's that have been in business beyond 10-12 years and with more experience..........my two there were not a good experience and I don't care for the quality of what is offered here......

Hmmm – Formosa sports a very large dining area and on our Saturday visit was mostly unpopulated with maybe 3 or 4 other tables occupied. I have read they feature Japanese style private tatami rooms. We were never offered or even told about this on arrival so I cannot comment. If you have a nice quirky feature like this wouldn't you advertise it to each new customer? Oh well. We were seated promptly with menus but it did take some time for the waiter to take our order. Two servers were working the floor for at most 12-15 people, so it was a little worrying. The large dining room and lack of diners made for an uncomfortable experience. The menu was standard for a budget chinese eaterie. The highlights of which being the low prices. I opted for spring rolls to start. Going against my own advice of sticking to the basics when going somewhere new I ordered the whole duck for main.. The s.rolls were basic fare and a little cold in the middle. Quite dissapointing. The duck is a story of its own. In the past I have only ever had duck served with pancakes, hoisin sauce and vegetables. The Formose duck was a mite different. To be fair this was my own naivety expecting their dish to be much like I had in the past. What I got was a whole duck. Baked, torn into pieces. That was it. no sauce, no vegetables, no rice, nothing. Just a big plate o' duck. Always one to try something new, I dug in. The duck was excessively overcooked.. Dry tasteless and very little meat to discern. Our co-diners mainly comprised elderly couples sharing a plate of chow mein, I guess they don't get much call for the duck. My waiter seemed almost upset when he took the plate away that I hadnt eaten more. Paying for the bill took almost as long as eating the meal. Our server also doubling up as cashier on the way out. When 5-10 people came in as we were leaving chaos ensued. I would hate to see what happens if this place really fills up.
Love this place! – We were new to the area and just stumbled upon Formosa. It is now our favorite place. The prices are super reasonable. The food is absolutely wonderful. We love their pan fried pot stickers along with everything else on the menu. Everything seems so fresh and the flavors of everything are above expectation. This place is great for take-out as well, but if you dine in it's nice to know that they serve beer too!!
Not Japanese – They didnt serve Japanese food anymore. The staff were really cool though and the food seemed to be a good price. I recommend this for people who want cheap Chinese food... However if you want sake dont be fooled by this article.. they USE to do Japanese.
Fantastic – My husband and I live in California. Every time we visit SLC, the first place my kids want to go is the Formosa Grill. Their hot & sour soup is to die for. This restaurant truly offers the freshest and most flavorful food around.
EXCELLENT – I love the food. I love the prices! I love the tatami rooms. Can be as fun or as romantic as you want. Excellent service! Makes a wonderful and unique date. Make sure you get a room! Only wish: more parking.
For when the family craves large portions of traditional Asian food cooked to perfection. – The Scene
A quiet, homey place, Formosa Grill offers traditional seating at tables and chairs or in private, Japanese-style tatami rooms. The gracious staff will encourage you to stay as long as you like.
The Food
The menu of more than 100 items features a number of reasonably priced ($6.95-7.75) combination dinners (daily soup or salad, fried wonton, fried shrimp, ham-fried rice, and a choice of 20 entrees). All your traditional favorites, including teriyaki and tempura, are available. The moo shu dishes--chicken, beef, pork, or vegetable--arrive on a heaping platter accompanied by plum sauce and wraps. Don't let the Szechwan entrees fool you; they are not for the faint-hearted. The light, flaky tempura batter is among the best in the city, perfect on vegetables, seafood, and fish.
Love it Love it Love – I love this place. My husband and I drive all the way from West Jordan for the Delight of 3 and the Tiny Spicey Chicken. If only they were closer to home!

Eat Less Food and Play More Bridge
No sure bets but longevity and healthy aging appear linked to diet, stimulating social activities.
It's been a dream month for the Calorie Restriction Society. The private group was begun about 15 years ago and is devoted to the increasingly likely proposition that people can significantly extend their life spans through extremely low-calorie diets. That belief got a major nudge last week from a University of Wisconsin study using rhesus monkeys, who are genetically close to humans and the most advanced test subjects to date for looking at the impact of such diets.
News outlets around the world gave 15 minutes of fame to two of the research subjects, Canto and Owen. They are about the same age but Canto has been on a restricted-calorie diet while Owen has not. Photographs show Canto to be trim, Owen not so much. Canto looks more alert but perhaps that's my wishful thinking. Yet, study findings did report that low-calorie test subjects not only lived longer but also showed more mental acuity and fewer signs of aging than monkeys fed a normal diet. At least Owen is still alive. Many of his normally fed peers haven't been so lucky, although it will be many years before all the research monkeys live out their lives and final research results can be tallied. Meanwhile, other research involving human subjects is adding weight to the notion that the typical cognitive declines associated with longevity can be fended off, to a degree, by a life style that involves lots of social engagement and, in particular, activities that are mentally challenging. Thus it was that 90-year-old bridge players in California found themselves last May on the front page of The New York Times talking about how playing bridge not only fills their minds but, literally, saves those minds from decay as well. (More than 40 years ago, bridge used to save me a lot -- it saved me from attending college lectures, from doing assignments, from studying for exams, from, well, you get the idea. Bridge was a consuming card game then and, perhaps, might be again one of these days.)
The Times' story, by Benedict Carey, painted a powerful portrait of its subjects at the bridge table, and introduced one of them as follows: "'We play for blood,' says Ruth Cummins, 92, before taking a sip of Red Bull at a recent game." God, I hope I can take a swig of Red Bull when I'm 92! Hopefully, they will have made it taste better by then.
Elsewhere, in interviews I've done with folks at retirement communities and with people who spend lots of time with older folks, similar benefits of social activity are recounted and extolled. At least this message about aging is clear: solitary life styles may not only be sad but may lead to earlier dementia, other illnesses and a premature death. You don't want to go there. That's one reason that developers of programs to help seniors stay in their homes emphasize cultural activities as an essential component of healthy aging.
[See Is a Naturally Occurring Retirement Community Right for You?] The benefits of low-calorie diets have been known for a long time. And it's no secret that people with full, active lives are, generally, happier and healthier than people who don't seek such companionship and stimulation. Why are we so slow to do what we know is good for us? Why is obesity a national catastrophe hiding in plain sight? Are we all waiting for a resveratrol pill or other drug that counters or even reverses the effects of aging?
Behaviorial resesearchers have long noted that people do not respond well to situations that require current sacrifice to achieve benefits that won't be realized for a long time (or, on the flip side, to forego small vices that cause huge cumulative health effects). That's one of the reasons we don't save enough to build solid retirement plans. I have my own suspicions but as then-candidate Barack Obama cleverly replied when asked a tough right-to-life question, "That's above my pay grade."
What do you think? Why don't people take the steps to invest in better futures?

Oscar "Black" Woodard, 44, and his roommate, age 40, got into an argument at their house on the 300 block of East 13th Street around 3 a.m. this morning, according to Anniston police Capt. Allen George.
During the fight, Woodard picked up an aluminum bat and struck the victim multiple times in the back with it, George said.
The captain said that when police arrived they found the victim lying on the sidewalk outside the house. The report did not mention how the victim got outside, George said.
The victim suffered from bruising on three areas of his back but told police he did not require medical attention, George said.
Woodard was found to have two outstanding warrants — one for failure to appear and another for contempt of court — from the Anniston Police Department at the time of his arrest, according to George.
Woodard was in the Calhoun County Jail this morning on second-degree domestic violence felony charges.
Woodard's bond is set at $2,500. No court date had been set as of today.

Social Finance participates in White House Impact Economy Forum
Aug 05, 2011
John Buley, head of Principal Investments for the firm's Social Finance group, recently spoke at the White House Impact Economy Forum, an event that explored the role of impact investing in the U.S.
"The event provides recognition from the U.S. government that impact investments are a tool to strengthen our nation's overall growth and competiveness, while providing financial returns to investors and demonstrating measureable non-financial impacts," said Buley.
Impact investments are an asset class intended to create a positive social or environmental impact beyond financial return. J.P. Morgan estimates the asset class offers an investment opportunity of between $400 billion and $1 trillion over the next decade in five sectors—housing, water, health, education and financial services—serving global populations earning less than $3,000 annually.
After introductory remarks by Director of the Office of Social Innovation and Civic Participation Sonal Shah, Buley spoke on a panel on the current state of impact investing led by Newsweek reporter Joanne Lipman.
"Investment capital follows a well-defined investment thesis of which goals can be measured against achievements," Buley said. "It is hard to conceptualize 'doing good,' and it is hard to measure that goal. Investors will respond to investment opportunities that are defined, narrow, clear and specific."
Buley said a growing number of investors reject the binary notion of investments either doing good or making the most amount of money. There is room for different investors and different vehicles within this space, he said, from the quasi-philanthropic to the very market-driven.
Also at the event, Gene Sperling, National Economic Council director, said that companies should think beyond writing a check to a model that is more sustainable, draws more on internal resources and leads to shared prosperity and a long-term sense of a company's interests.
Melody Barnes, director of the Domestic Policy Council, said on the White House blog, "creating an impact economy will help fuel job growth, promote innovation, and advance grassroots social change across America." Barnes and other officials started the blog to understand how to remove barriers, streamline regulations and target existing government resources to reshape the economic landscape in the U.S. with better jobs and improved societal impact.
